Default Craft-Air Cowboy Build

What a blast from the past! I will be documenting my Craft-Air Cowboy build on this forum and will be built per plans.

I am planning on going electric with this build since it already has a front hatch for battery access.

I was working on my Cowboy and came across this post. Did you make any progress? Any chance you have a scan of the instruction booklet?

No major update since I put it on the back burner. I just started the build again and will keep this thread updated.

I can copy the booklet for you and email it to you if you like

I’d love a copy if it’s not too much trouble. I’m probably a bit further in my build than you - just about ready to cover.

Converted to electric, aluminum landing gear, dual aileron servos…

Mine is pretty much by the plans except for electric motor conversion.

I still have to do the vertical stab and finish the fuse as well as reinforce the firewall.

Got the stab covered and epoxied to the frame. It's slowly coming along.

Base covering done besides the wing. Now I just need to pick the trim
